Strategy Tips

tee shot

Target the center-left of the fairway with your tee shot, as the fairway widens significantly from 47 yards at the 200-yard mark to 55 yards at 250 yards. This gives longer hitters more room to work with while avoiding the fairway bunker positioned at 243 yards.

hazard warning

Be aware of the fairway bunker at 243 yards from the tee - this is well within driving distance for most golfers. Club selection is crucial here to either lay up short of this hazard or carry it completely depending on your distance capabilities.

approach

From a good drive, you'll face an approach shot from roughly 180-200 yards to a relatively compact green measuring just 3,983 square feet. The narrow green dimensions of 37 yards long by 19 yards wide demand precision - focus on the center of the green rather than attacking pins.

approach

Two greenside bunkers positioned at 370.6 and 304.9 yards from the tee frame the putting surface. With the green being only 19 yards wide, missing left or right of the green will likely find sand, making distance control more important than directional precision.

green

This 437-yard par 4 plays as a true two-shot hole where positioning off the tee sets up everything. The compact green size means your approach must be dialed in - consider taking one more club and swinging smoothly rather than forcing a shot to this small target.
